Hi All, Yet another question from me for a friend who is imminently expecting. She is 37 wks (maybe a touch under) with a breech baby and unsuccessful ECV. Apparently baby is breech with legs extended (feet beside ears), and 3 attempts to turn were unsuccessful (this was attempted yesterday). This baby is her second - and baby #1 was delivered vaginally with no complications - 8lb+
She is being told caesar is the way to go, though she is desperately disappointed. I mentioned acupuncture to try, and I wondered if there is anyone out there who can help in providing contacts of anyone who is likely to be able to help turn this baby - she is willing to try (almost!) anything. Thanks in advance, Jo (I am now a mother of two! Second baby born March 31, 2002 - a son, Alec, weighing 3950g, measuring 54 cm long, and 36 cm head, discharged under 24 hours after birth - and I got the uncomplicated vaginal delivery I always dreamed of - and now fully appreciate why they call it 'labour!) -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
